Berrystripe had just been called as Ravenpaw's mentor and so she made it a high priority to not be late for their first training session. Ravenpaw was fast as running and so she wanted to take her out hunting today. Berrystripe waited at the training moor for Ravenpaw to show.

"Lets head towards the rock pile again, but once we get there we will be practicing our stalking instead of just catching." Ravenpaw had caught the most prey last time, but Berrystripe had noticed she wasn't stalking correctly.

Berrystripe nodded to Ravenpaw. "You don't want it dragging on the ground or wigging in the air, you want it straight." She replied, reminding her apprentice before she smiled at her. "Try again, remember to keep your tail straight."

Smiling did she crep closer on a leaf. Setting light paws on the ground as well having her tail straight. Once she was close enough did the wind blow, moving it into the sky. But RavenPaw jumped her claw just missed it. "Fox dung!" She growled before looking to her mentor.

Berrystripe had seen the leaf move and that is what Ravenpaw was aiming for and even though the wind blew the leaf out of Ravenpaw's grip she didn't judge. "How about real prey this time. What do you smell." Her voice showed pride in her apprentice.

Raven brightened at the pride in BerryStripes voice. "Ok, live prey." She said bounding over before parting her jaws. "I scent.. mouse and.. thrush." She looked up at her mentor, "but its stale" she said feeling a bit hungry herself.

Raven seen Berrys reaction. The black apprentice nodded before stalking to it the way she just learned. Thinking she was close did she pounce, nipping its neck life line. Picking it up did she trot over her tail held high in pride.

Berrystripe looked at Ravenpaw and tried to hold back a sigh. They'd have a long way to go, it looked like the other mentor didn't teach her much. "Alright, I'll teach you some battle moves then you can try them on me." She answered the apprentice before getting into position.

"We'll start with a Front paw strike." Berrystripe explained as she got into position. "The goal is to scratch my face or somewhere along my body." She continued to explain. "If you are far away and you want to attack me." She crouched and ran towards Ravenapw, lifting her paw at the last second in the air, moving down, avoiding Ravenpaw, as her claws came down in front of the apprentice's face, then moved away. "You want to run at your opponent, lift up your paw at the last second, aiming for their face or their body where you can reach. Remember to leave your claws sheathed." Since they were practicing. "Now practice on me." Berrystripe stood in position to move if Ravenpaw wasn't fast enough.

Berrystripe was about to move when Ravenpaw lifted her paw to rake her in the face. "Good." She smiles before sitting down. "Lets try your back kick." Berrystripe turned to look at Ravenapw. "Because I know your coming I expect you to be fast when you get behind me or use your back kick to attack me."

Berrystripe would turn so that she could watch Ravenpaw so that she'd know when to move out of the way. "When you back kick you shoot your back legs out as far up as you can, aiming for your enemy anywhere on their body." She finishes speaking before kicking her back legs up high in the air. "Something like that, your turn."

Ravenpaw studied her mentor before running, attempting to fool her mentor by turning to the side and moving to her blind spot as she lashed out her back legs. Hitting her belly, "is that good?" She waited for a reply.

Berrystripe was turning to keep up with Ravenpaw, but got fooled by the direction and got kicked in the stomach when she attempted to back up on her hind legs.... "Nice move." She answered back before standing on all fours again. "Lets try Front paw blow." She paused before bringing her right paw up in the air. "You bring your paw up like this, and you smash it down on your enemies head." She brought her paw down, avoiding Ravenpaw. "Try on me."

Berrystripe was hit on the head but not very hard. She shook her head. "Good." She spoke before sniffing the air again, smelling a mouse. She pointed her tail at the mouse, remaining quiet expecting Ravenpaw to get it.

Berrystripe sighed and forced a smile on her face. "Lets try more battle moves. "Lets try the Leap and Hold." She answered then explained how one did the move. "Spring onto opponent's back and grip with unsheathed claws. Now you are beyond the range of the opponent's paws and in position to inflict severe body wounds." Pausing she explains.

"This move is used if your opponent is bigger than you, very good if you have others helping you take the warrior down." She paused again before saying, "See if you can jump on my back." She watched Ravenpaw, ready to move when the young apprentice moves... Ravenpaw would have to jump over her head or get behind her and jump if she wanted to do the Leap and Hold move.

"Okay..." She said studying her mentor. Nodding did she put her eyes on Berrystripe, cold and mystirous before dashing to the shadows, her sleek black pelt fitting to the caressing shadows. She then batted a rock out before dashing on silent paws to the back of her mentor. Hoping the rock would destract her mentor, just then she ran at a speed before attempting to jump on her mentors back claws sheathed. "How i do?" She said jumping off.

"Good." Berrystripe answered Ravenpaw back, thinking to herself as of what else to do. She sniffed the air, catching the scent of more prey. She pointed with her tail, expecting Ravenpaw to tell her what she can smell after attempting to catch it.

Berrystripe nodded to the young apprentice, crouching she slowly walked towards that direction. She seen the thrush and leaped towards the bird. She caught it between her paws and made the killing blow. She brought the prey back to Ravenpaw and pushed dirt over it.

She caught the thrush as to not over work the young apprentice. "Okay I'm going to show you how to do a tail yank. You go behind your opponent just like this." She went behind Ravenpaw and stood behind her. "Grab their tail between your teeth and pull." She walked back in front of Ravenpaw. "The more weight you put on your hind paws as you pull, the more likely you are to unbalance your opponent to trip them up."

She balanced herself perfectly and walked Ravenpaw closely. "Use what I taught you and see if you can use the Tail yank on me for your last move." She didn't know how many moves Ravenpaw was going to use before she'd sneak behind her so Berrystripe had to be careful even though she wanted her apprentice to do the move correctly.

"Okay," she meowed before studing her mentor Moving on sly light paws did she cyrcle and switch directions to confuse Berrystripe. She then pointed her sea green eyes to a spot before doing a fake dash to it. She tried blending into the craks of the shadows before switching direction, moving behind Berry and attempting to bite firm yet softly and yanking hard to unbalance her mentor.

Berrystripe was keeping up with her until she did a fake dash and managed to get behind her. Ravenpaw had her tail in her mouth already pulling to make her lose her balance. She laughed and slowly stood up. "Very good." She was impressed, soon Ravenpaw would be made into a warrior. "How about you chose what do train on next." She smiled at her apprentice and waited.

Ravenpaw nodded before running and jumping on her mentor and digging in her claw, but not deep where she can feel pain. She then attempted to slid under and rake her back legs softly. She did this a few times before rolling away to gain her feet.

Berrystripe got attacked, attempting to knock Ravenpaw off she failed because her apprentice had become just as good as any warrior. She slowly stood up after Ravenpaw had gotten off and nodded her head approvingly to her. "Hmm lets take a break you can free hunt if you want." Berrystripe sat down to rest.

The midnight black she nodded before scenting the musky dewy air. Her sleek pelt was soaking with the constant rainfall and strong winds. Though it was bad out she sniffed the air picking up a hare. She smiled as her green eyes locked onto it, she of course stayed downwind like she was tought. She stalked until the hare picked up his head, Ray wasn't going to wait around so she dashed out as the hare ran. Since her build was greatly built for speed she gained with ease upon the brown hare. As she closed she jumped onto it and bit its back neck, killing it within a minute. Standing did she drag the plump hare back to her mentor, Berrystripe. Dropping it did she ask, Want some? Theres plenty and I think we earned it!" She meowed before taking a bit and waited for Berry to take her share of a mouthfull.
